DocPrintJob | public interface DocPrintJob (Code) | | This interface represents a print job that can print a specified
document with a set of job attributes. An object implementing
this interface is obtained from a print service.
|
Method Summary | |
public void | addPrintJobAttributeListener(PrintJobAttributeListener listener, PrintJobAttributeSet attributes) Registers a listener for changes in the specified attributes.
If listener is null, no exception is thrown and no action is
performed.
To determine the attribute updates that may be reported by this job,
a client can call getAttributes() and identify the
subset that are interesting and likely to be reported to the
listener. | public void | addPrintJobListener(PrintJobListener listener) Registers a listener for event occurring during this print job. | public PrintJobAttributeSet | getAttributes() Obtains this Print Job's set of printing attributes.
The returned attribute set object is unmodifiable. | public PrintService | getPrintService() Determines the
PrintService object to which this print job
object is bound. | public void | print(Doc doc, PrintRequestAttributeSet attributes) Prints a document with the specified job attributes.
This method should only be called once for a given print job.
Calling it again will not result in a new job being spooled to
the printer. | public void | removePrintJobAttributeListener(PrintJobAttributeListener listener) Removes an attribute listener from this print job.
This method performs no function, nor does it throw an exception,
if the listener specified by the argument was not previously added
to this component. | public void | removePrintJobListener(PrintJobListener listener) Removes a listener from this print job.
This method performs no function, nor does it throw an exception,
if the listener specified by the argument was not previously added
to this component. |
addPrintJobAttributeListener | public void addPrintJobAttributeListener(PrintJobAttributeListener listener, PrintJobAttributeSet attributes)(Code) | | Registers a listener for changes in the specified attributes.
If listener is null, no exception is thrown and no action is
performed.
To determine the attribute updates that may be reported by this job,
a client can call getAttributes() and identify the
subset that are interesting and likely to be reported to the
listener. Clients expecting to be updated about changes in a
specific job attribute should verify it is in that set, but
updates about an attribute will be made only if it changes and this
is detected by the job. Also updates may be subject to batching
by the job. To minimise overhead in print job processing it is
recommended to listen on only that subset of attributes which
are likely to change.
If the specified set is empty no attribute updates will be reported
to the listener.
If the attribute set is null, then this means to listen on all
dynamic attributes that the job supports. This may result in no
update notifications if a job can not report any attribute updates.
If listener is already registered, it will be registered again.

addPrintJobListener | public void addPrintJobListener(PrintJobListener listener)(Code) | | Registers a listener for event occurring during this print job.
If listener is null, no exception is thrown and no action is
performed.
If listener is already registered, it will be registered again.

getAttributes | public PrintJobAttributeSet getAttributes()(Code) | | Obtains this Print Job's set of printing attributes.
The returned attribute set object is unmodifiable.
The returned attribute set object is a "snapshot" of this Print Job's
attribute set at the time of the
DocPrintJob.getAttributes() method
call; that is, the returned attribute set's object's contents will
not be updated if this Print Job's attribute set's contents change
in the future. To detect changes in attribute values, call
getAttributes() again and compare the new attribute
set to the previous attribute set; alternatively, register a
listener for print job events.
The returned value may be an empty set but should not be null.
the print job attributes |
getPrintService | public PrintService getPrintService()(Code) | | Determines the
PrintService object to which this print job
object is bound.
PrintService object. |
print | public void print(Doc doc, PrintRequestAttributeSet attributes) throws PrintException(Code) | | Prints a document with the specified job attributes.
This method should only be called once for a given print job.
Calling it again will not result in a new job being spooled to
the printer. The service implementation will define policy
for service interruption and recovery.
When the print method returns, printing may not yet have completed as
printing may happen asynchronously, perhaps in a different thread.
Application clients which want to monitor the success or failure
should register a PrintJobListener.
Print service implementors should close any print data streams (ie
Reader or InputStream implementations) that they obtain
from the client doc. Robust clients may still wish to verify this.
An exception is always generated if a DocFlavor cannot
be printed.
Parameters: doc - The document to be printed. If must be a flavorsupported by this PrintJob. Parameters: attributes - The job attributes to be applied to this print job.If this parameter is null then the default attributes are used. throws: PrintException - The exception additionally may implement an interface that more precisely describes the cause of theexception - FlavorException.If the document has a flavor not supported by this print job.
- AttributeException.If one or more of the attributes are not valid for this print job.

removePrintJobAttributeListener | public void removePrintJobAttributeListener(PrintJobAttributeListener listener)(Code) | | Removes an attribute listener from this print job.
This method performs no function, nor does it throw an exception,
if the listener specified by the argument was not previously added
to this component. If the listener is null, no exception is thrown
and no action is performed.
If a listener is registered more than once, even for a different
set of attributes, no guarantee is made which listener is removed.

removePrintJobListener | public void removePrintJobListener(PrintJobListener listener)(Code) | | Removes a listener from this print job.
This method performs no function, nor does it throw an exception,
if the listener specified by the argument was not previously added
to this component. If listener is null, no exception is thrown and
no action is performed. If a listener was registered more than once
only one of the registrations will be removed.
